Welcome to my fundraising page! I’m getting my rear in gear to support the fight against colorectal cancer.

If you know my story, you know this isn’t some distant cause for me — it’s personal. I’m living it. I’m fighting it. And I’m still standing.

That’s why I’m raising money for the Colon Cancer Coalition’s Get Your Rear in Gear. Because colorectal cancer doesn’t care who you are… but early detection, awareness, and support absolutely save lives.

Where does your donation go? Straight to work - locally. Every dollar fuels real impact through things that matter: screenings, education and awareness programs, patient support, and vital research. Real efforts. Real hope. Real lives changed. 

Here’s the part that still blows my mind:
Colorectal cancer is the second deadliest cancer, yet nearly 1 in 3 adults age 45+ aren’t getting screened. The lifetime risk? 1 in 25. That’s way too high for a cancer that’s often preventable and highly treatable when caught early.

So I invite you to stand with me. Donate if you can. Share this page. Start the awkward-but-incredibly important conversation with someone you love about getting screened. Every act makes a difference. And together, we can rewrite the statistics — one rear at a time. 

As for me, I’ll always keep showing up and speaking up. Because if my journey inspires even one person to get checked early, then it’s absolutely worth it.
